Özet

Sea level change over the global system has been studied by various observations during the historical period, and by Atmosphere-Ocean coupled Global Climate Models or General Circulation Models (AOGCMs) during 2000 - 2100 (IPCC Fourth Assessment Report). In this study, an introductory analysis on sea level change around the Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak coastlines during the 21st century is presented. The variation of the sea level change with respect to the spatial location along the Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak coastlines is determined by means of a statistical analysis of the historical tidal gauge data and satellite altimetry data on the observed sea level changes around the Peninsular Malaysia and Sabah and Sarawak coastlines. © 2011 ASCE.
